----Additional quotes from our team:

“Our goal is to be a valuable resource for people who are looking for information and support to advocate for issues that affect the lives of people with disabilities,” commented Laura Hanson, Director of Operations and Quality.

The new website also features the stories of people whom DRW has helped to exercise their rights and pursue their own personal goals. “We hope that by sharing these stories, more people will be inspired to join the disability rights movement and give voice to their own struggle for justice. Our new website is designed to increase access to justice through education, practical resources, policy alerts, and legal representation” shared Daniel Idzikowski, Executive Director.

“The work we do to promote effective policies for people with disabilities at all levels of government cannot be done without the support and action of other disability organizational partners, and most importantly, self-advocates and their family members who are directly affected by the decisions of our elected officials. We look forward to continuing to equip Wisconsinites with the information they need to advocate for their rights,” stated Amy Devine, Public Policy Coordinator.
